... I was able to bring those NBP flakes to shine through again. This was in preparation for the upcoming SD beach meet. Pictures from that will be up by next week. It looks like we'll be in for a good showing of 2nd Gen CLs. Enjoy.

 

stunning

 

up your butt while my car collects dust...

 

looking very good!

 

looks good.. Your rims are starting to grow on me. What kind of rotors and pads are you using and any sign of warping yet?

 

love those headlights. you live in san diego.. now slam it!

 

woooow...thats so hot do u use zaino?

 

those would be Rotora crossdrilled and slotted rotors purchased from Excelerate and EBC Redstuff pads i got from AJUSA. the combo works great along with the SS lines. no dusting at all. come down for the meet on Saturday!
i use only Meguiar's products. this time i used their NXT car wash, claybar, Scratch X, Deep Crystal polish and NXT wax. all applied with the G100 DA polisher. the pics do not do justice to how good it looks. dinky little pocket Canon.

 

Looks really good Luis! It looks like I can swim in that NBP paint. Wish I could make the SD meet. Some day... some day.

 

look real good meow

 

mmm shiny
i like those wheels too
nice job dude

 

i'm loving the blacked out look, you should just tint your entire 01 tails, and it would be perfect.

 

beautiful as always Luis, nice and clean!

sorry to pick out the flaws but is that condensation in your drivers side headlamp? (judging by the last picture taken)

 

i had bought the Rockblocker tint for the tails. i tried it on and i didn't like it. so i sold them. i really like my black and bright red rear though. if i come by some '03 tails, i'll tint the bottom.
yeah, that is condensation. the shop said that they had placed extra screws and sealant and that they wouldn't leak. but unfortunately, both do. the left more than the right. too bad the shop that did the work is almost three hours away. otherwise i would've tooken them back asap. i washed the car in the morning before these pics hence a little water was in there. it goes away after a full day in the sun though.

 

your car looks great, my fav NBP on the site...what'd you use for the chrome moldings around window and door handles

 

for the handles, i painted them myself. turned out pretty good. for the trim around the windows, i used Trimbrite's black out tape. here it is on amazon.com:http://www.amazon.com/Trimbrite-T900...4953434&sr=8-1
it takes a little patient, but goes on and stays well.

 

wow... im amazed, finally an american company that has style.

ill be sure to buy that once i get it.

see you at the meet luis, thanks for cleaning it up so i can test drive it

 

excellent job! looks great!

 

Is it just me or does your car sit a little higher in the back than the front? It's the complete opposite of the way my car sits with my H-Techs.

 

Those wheels are money!

Everyone always thought I was crazy when I was considering them for my car, but they look @ home on your CL.

 

nope. mine isn't a 6 speed.
that's the Comptech for you. one of the reasons they did so was to constantly keep weight forward on the front tires. putting power to the ground.

good posts. thanks guys.

 

Looks freakin' awesome, Luey. Other than Stealth/JohnBlayze, you have the bestest older NBP paint.

 

I'd recommend using Ardex New Wave spray before washing the car......it does wonders to white and black paint.

 

nice avatar.....i personally know the owner of that infiniti m45....you have to see his car too the IS250

 

Lookin good man, it's so gratifying to stand back and look at a freshly detailed NBP. Keep up the good work, the ride is looking awesome.

 

thanks, Ryan. but what do you mean by old paint(though it is coming up on six years)?
i know what you mean, mang.

 

looks good

 

saw it up close and personal, Berry Berry nice...as if it was just rolled out of the factory paint booth.

 

So Clean! That front plate kinda ruins it though Looks like a tongue...

 

thanks bro. we need to get the SD CLs to come out. don't you think?
hey Anthony. what happened? we missed you at the meet. there are some meter maids who are always busy in this part of town who have given me tickets for either no plate or for "plate position".

so i just figured it's a little better to have mounted as i do than with the stock bracket.

 

here are some nice shots of my car which i like. tooken by various AZ members:










thanks for these rolling shots, Ethan(xBlur)!!

 

 

OoOoo, I see, that makes sense then Sorry about the meet, I actually totally forgot about the meet And I didnt realize it until the day after the meet Hopefully next time I will be able to make it, hope you all had fun and plenty of hot CL's!
